Using the multi-zone function
You can connect the unit with a pre-main amplifier or
speakers in a separate room and playback audio sources
from an external device connected to the analog audio
input jacks of the unit. And also, you can enjoy sources
of "NET", "USB", "BLUETOOTH" as well as AM/FM
broadcasting. It is also possible to play the sound from
different analog connected devices in the main room and
separate room.
r
As for the "NET", "USB" and "BLUETOOTH", you cannot
select different inputs for the main room and separate
room. For example, if "NET" has been selected in the
main room and then "USB" is selected on the pre-main
amplifier in the separate room, the input in the main room
will change to "USB" accordingly.
r
When listening to AM/FM broadcasting, you cannot
select different stations for the main room and separate
room. Therefore broadcasting of the same station will be
heard in the both rooms.
Connecting with Player
To use a Blu-ray Disc player or other players as the source
of multi-zone audio output, it is necessary to connect the
RCA audio output jacks of the player and the analog audio
input jacks of the unit using the analog audio (RCA) cable.
